Completely true! No snark taken.

Average people were pretty handy with computers and internet, even before the smartphone entered the scene and made it even more handy for even more people. So that would be the challenge in bringing some 'personal mobile server' to life.

At this point your average person does a poor job of securing their home non-server. So while people might be pretty handy with their computers in some ways, I think it's reasonable to consider that they're very much not handy at all in some pretty important ones. Home computers are frequently unpatched, poorly maintained, and malware-riddled. I don't think turning them into servers is likely to improve this situation much.
